So, as a result the page is all a mess because it can't find the style sheet in the location "css/main.css" or any of the images in the "images/*.png" location because it needs to look in the location "/images/*.png" but the problem is that the first time the user hits this page it is not in the context of the servlet so everything needs to be in the former locations. If/When we return to the page because the user forgot some form data that is when there is a problem.
